Chapter 104 A Sudden Awakening

Neither Nella nor Alfred knows why he was so agitated.

Alfred only knew that he was running away.

He had escaped in complete panic.

He was afraid that if he were even a second slower, Nella would bring up divorce again.

Even though the three-year term had been set by him in the first place, in those three years, he had never once thought about “divorce.”

In his subconscious, he and Nella were meant to go on like this for a lifetime.

Nella … how dare she!

How dare she bring up divorce with me!

The anger in Alfred’s chest surged upward, and his palm felt wet.

Along came sharp pain from the tugged nerves and tissue.

He lifted his hand. His palm was smeared red with blood.

He must’ve moved too forcefully just now and torn the stitched wound

open.

But Alfred had no energy to care about that.

It was as if only the pain in his palm could distract him from the panic Nella’s divorce request stirred in his chest.

He remembered the surveillance video Nella had sent to his phone earlier

He hadn’t watched it then.

He remembered how calmly Nella had admitted she’d deliberately wronged Zoey, and something strange flickered in his heart.

He took out his phone and opened the video.

“Know your place and divorce Alfred already!”

The moment the video started, that was the first line Alfred heard.

Zoey’s voice was domineering and smug.

She sounded sharp and condescending, nothing like the timid, careful Zoey he saw in front of Nella.

So this is her real attitude toward Nella behind my back.

Isn’t it enough that she keeps finding excuses to pull me away from Nella? This is how she acts with Nella in private too?

No wonder … no wonder Nella suddenly wants a divorce.

No wonder Nella suddenly grew so cold toward me.

He forced himself to keep watching.

After that, it was all the bystanders accusing Zoey of being shameless and pressuring the wife to divorce.

And Nella stood off to the side, watching as if it had nothing to do with her.

Even through the video, it was obvious that Nella had no intention of

From an outsider’s perspective, it did look like Nella was deliberately guiding others to verbally attack Zoey.

As Alfred watched, he suddenly understood.

And once he did, he laughed in anger.

“Nella, so this was your plan?”

At first, he couldn’t understand why Nella would hand over her own “evidence” so willingly.

After watching the video, he finally got it.

She believed that Zoey’s helpless isolation in the video, paired with her own indifference, would anger him.

Then he would take the initiative to divorce her.

Just like how she had bluntly admitted on the phone that Zoey was his mistress, the purpose was the same.
